Debatable.
You think it's debatable whether being unable to use to Yahoo or
SourceForge or do any e-commerce is crippling? Wow.
Getting a binary up this quickly is quite convenient.
Yeah, but if it doesn't do what one needs, it's pointless.
To add any ssl functionality to lynx requires a compile and always
has in my experience.
I guess you're referring to the licensing discussion?
Even without ssl you still get that 'real view' of the web,
scriptable, customizable and fast.
But without any access to hundreds of important web sites. Not
exactly a selling point. Unless you think that SSL is evil and any
web site which uses it sucks, but I've never heard of anyone who
believes that.

A non-SSL Lynx is a crippled Lynx. Can't even log in to Yahoo, let
alone do any online shopping. Nice PoC, though.
